grew up at midnight pt. 5

Where/how
will you be spending NYE (bar, club, friends house, etc)?the
amazing friends I am staying with are throwing a big party.

What
is the one song that really gets you ready to go out?

I tend to listen to pretty chilled out music before going out. I love throwing
something like "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" on the record
player.

What
is your biggest guilty pleasure song of 2012?I don't really get guilty about music, i feel guilty enough about other things.
But i do get that "somebody that i used to know" song stuck in my
head and it drove me nuts. And in 2012 I really got into Niki and the Dove
"the fox" and "mother protect" which I played often and on
repeat which probably drove the neighbours crazy.What
are your going out essentials?good
friends, perfume (tom ford), a camera of some sort, the number of a local cab
company and sunglasses incase it is light when I head home.

(ph. Malia James)

What
is the one song that always gets you on the dancefloor?Bruce
Springsteen: Born to Run

What
would you spin if you were the dj?I'd probably
ask Dan Mancini to dj "with me" and then just enjoy what
he was playing.

What
drink will you be holding throughout the night?

Champagne

Who
do you wish you could kiss at midnight (celebrity or non)?Two
people come immediately to mind, one is personal and the other is Eddie
Vedder... ( teenage crushes never go away) He is about two feet shorter than
me, but as i said to Malia a while back... he's short in stature but tall in
talent.What
do you do after the party (go to another location, go home and crash)?In London I'd end up out all night rampaging from one late night disaster to
another or probably end up trying to sleep in the lobby of The Groucho Club.
Here (thankfully) i'll just have to slink off to my room.Your
hangover cure?sadly
only time heals. :(

Where/how will you be spending NYE (bar, club, friends
house, etc)?I'm not sure yet; champagne at home and then either Motor
City or Heather's as friends are djing both spots.What is the one song that really gets you ready to go out?It really depends on the situation. I expect
Siouxsie and the Banshees tonight.

What is your biggest guilty pleasure song of 2012?I don't think in terms of guilty pleasures anymore; just
whether I like it.

What are your going out essentials?Heels and eyeliner.

What is the one song that always gets you on the
dancefloor?Anything by Biggie or Slade.What would you spin if you were the dj?All sorts. I got hired to DJ at Mister H at The
Mondrian recently and was fired only ten minutes into my set. Management
hadn't told the night's promoter I had to play top 40 in consideration of the
hotel guests so my Lush, Cocteau Twins, and Rowland S Howard selections did not
go over well.

What drink will you be holding throughout the night?Champagne then lemon water.Who do you wish you could kiss at midnight (celebrity or
non)?My mom.What do you do after the party (go to another location, go
home and crash)?It takes a lot to entice me to go anywhere but home.

Your hangover cure?Marijuana and coffee.What are you looking forward to most in 2013?Ch ch ch changes

Where/how will you be spending NYE (bar, club, friends
house, etc)?Originally Nashville, but thanks to mother nature blessing
us with snow and ice, I’ll now be at home watching the Twilight Zone marathon and reading generic mass text messages at midnight and not gonna lie, I might be in a onesie...

What is the one song that really gets you ready to go out?"Darling Nikki" - Prince, "Edge of Seventeen"- Stevie Nicks, anything No Doubt.

What is your biggest guilty pleasure song of 2012?“Boyfriend” – Justin Bieber, “I Knew You Were Trouble” –
Taylor Swift, I don’t feel guilty about it either.

What would you spin if you were the dj?My tastes are all over the place, so my set would be a hot
mess of 90s baby making jamzzz, Three 6 Mafia, Prince, Tears
For Fears, New Order, LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture, The Smiths, Crystal Waters (well, 90s dance in general), and WHAM would somehow get in there...the list could go on forever.

What drink will you be holding throughout the night?Gin & Tonic then Champagne then waterWho do you wish you could kiss at midnight (celebrity or
non)?Oh there is someone…but I’ll settle for any of the following: Ryan Gosling, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Gaspard Ulliel. Then
there is my puppy, Atticus!

What do you do after the party (go to another location, go
home and crash)?Definitely home, shower and crash. Shower depends on the
level of intoxication and/or pure laziness…

Your hangover cure?Water and advil before bed and in the
morning, toast, lots of coffee, some more advil and some more water
